I also keep a bottle of Permethrin spray in the garage. I spray it on my boots/sneakers/shoes that I wear outside.

In addition to spraying the yard I also put down DE powder in and around my fenced in dog yard. It is the same DE that they sell to mix with cattle/animal feed. It kills parasites in their guts.

I think you mean pyrethrin, which is an insect repellent.
Pyrethrin come from chrysanthemum flowers and is a mixture of six chemicals produced by the flower that are toxic to insects. Strangely enough, these same chemicals are not toxic to mammals and chrysanthemum tea is actually quite pleasant tasting.
